since you burn so easily, you need to build you a base tan. start out by laying out about 15 min on each side, or less. then gradually increase it by a few minutes each time. after you have a little color, try a tanning oil. this will help with your results.
Reply:Slow and steady, use an SFP no lower than 15, 30 is probably better. It may take a little while to get tan but in the long run you will be happier because you will not look as red.
Reply:hm i say just go tan! better!
Reply:Honestly, I'd say leave it pale, but enhance it. For one thing, tanning naturally (I assume you mean in the sun) is really bad for you. And also, just because darker skin is pretty on other people, doesn't mean that pale skin isn't pretty, too. If you look in the fashion magazines, you'll see all shades of skin, not just tan. In fact, I think too much tan is kind of tacky.





Personally, I wear a light foundation, ivory powder, just a touch of pale pink cheek stain. Tarte stick blush in Dollface is a good one. And I wear a silvery pink highlighter on my cheekbones. You could try something like that and play up what you already have. I also never go out in the sun without a big hat. It looks cool and it is healthier for your skin. And I never have to squint because the sun is in my eyes! If you feel washed out, add color with a lip stain or tinted lip balm - either is great for summer.





Bottom line, try making the most of who you are instead of trying to change it. You'll have less frustration and a more unique look.
